David Mills was a great writer, a newspaperman who turned to TV and contributed to shows such as Homicide, NYPD Blue, The Wire and the soon-to-debut Treme. He died at 48 on the set of Treme in New Orleans. He’s a friend of a friend, so I’ve been on the receiving end of some incredible memorials on FB and twitter and the blog post here is from David’s blog - good writing on good writing. My sincere condolences to all of us. It hurts to lose a good person and a good writer.
